River Ridge

Still believe RR is perhaps the best value in the area and remains my go-to (I often play as a single and on short notice).

Pace of play this Friday was a problem (wasn’t addressed until late on the back nine) and there still is no water on the course.

Great shape

Course was in really good shape. Greens were running well and fairway/tee boxes were good.

Great Course. Bring your own water.

Played here a few times in the last few weeks. Course is very well kept, greens run true, and you hit off real grass on the range. Only problem I have is the lack of water coolers on any of the tee boxes. We’re now in the heart of summer and it’s simply a safety concern to not have any places to hydrate the golfers.

Great Course

Great layout, Great Fairways, Awesome Greens, They had a beverage cart out there which was nice and they came by 4 times during my 18 holes. You get a small bucket for the range if you want, chipping green with bunkers and putting green. Will definitely play again when I’m back in town!

Great experience

Nice course with friendly staff and good pace of play. Greens were fun! Definitely will go back. Some complain about no water on course, but restaurant provides ice cups and water and be weave cart circles sa few times. Ranges balls come with greens fees. Enjoy!!

Still a great course, but bumpy greens, slow pace, and no water

Course was in overall good condition. Always glad to get a small bucket of balls included.

Were advised at check-in that the greens had been punched about three weeks ago -- more noticeable on some than other but generally bumpy overall as opposed to their normal class. Tee time after 4pm on a Sunday with plenty of time to get 18 in, but the pace was really slow with waits on just about every shot. They were on top of things at #1 with the starter, but we never saw a ranger on the course to help with pace of play.

Also never saw a water cooler on the course. Almost positive that they were there pre-Covid. Hoped to get a drink at the turn around 645pm, but the snack bar was already closed. No water fountain in sight. Not even enough clearance to fill up water bottles in the bathroom sink.

Not their best day but still coming back.
